Lately, after playing around in VR, I’ve been fantasizing what it would be like to Visually Script in 3D with Blueprints. With or without VR. Orthogonal Views would allow the BP3D Nodes to be viewed like traditional BP2D Nodes. Could probably even have some form BP3D to BP2D conversion, visa versa.
I also imagine playful Gamification Mechanics that are invoked when one deletes, adds, orientate, connects BP3D Nodes. Something Simple like Enemy UFOs swoping in shooting missiles at your BP3D Nodes/Wires and you can point and click to Zap them to Score Points. Could probably be Motivator when Scripting gets tough. Of course Undo/Redo functionality would be there. Haha. Perhaps a new game genre? Utility Game?
Just a fantasy at this point, but I truly feel Blueprints in 3D would be fun, immersive, and coherent with all the other work we’re doing in 3D Development Environment. I definitely want to hear what others think about it. Please share your thoughts. Thanks for reading.
